[Intro]

G  C  D  C  G  C  Dadd4add9  G x2





[Verse]

-----



     G                   C

It's funny with age, you get to the stage,

     D                          C

your head and your heart aren't on the same page;

     G                                 C                        G

your heart will wait forever, but your skin says you're getting old.

                    C

Good things come to those who wait,

    D                         C

the lights were up and it was getting late;

    G                     C   Dadd4add9    G

she wore my coat 'cos she said that she was cold.





[Pre-chorus]

----------



C                                   G

Funny how quick a coat turns into a ring.

Em                                  D

Looking back now I don't remember a thing.





[First Chorus]

------------



C                       Dadd4add9               G

We don't talk about the writing on the wall;

G/F#              Em            Am

somedays we don't talk at all.

                    D                  G        G7      C

When the lights are dim and my time is free,

                            Dadd4add9                   G

I sometimes think about the good times that I missed,

            G/F#            Em                          Am

I sometimes think about the girls I could've kissed,

                  D                       G

but I settled for her and she settled for me.







G  C  D  C  G  C  Dadd4add9  G





[Second Verse]

------------



                         C

It's funny how time just seems to fly,

    D                         C

you blink your eyes and it'll pass you by,

G                      C                      G

before too long you're getting on the bus for free.

                  C

Same old routine, same old blue jeans,

D                    C                  G  C  Dadd4add9 G

same old nightmares, different dreams.





[Pre-chorus]

----------



C                                  G

Funny how quick the days turn into years.

Em                             D

Funny some people change, some disappear.





[Second Chorus]

-------------



C                       Dadd4add9               G

We don't talk about the writing on the wall;

      G/F#              Em              Am

hell, somedays we don't talk at all.

                    D                  G        G7      C

When the lights are dim and my time is free,

                            Dadd4add9                   G

I sometimes think about the good times that I missed,

            G/F#            Em                          Am

I sometimes think about the girls I could've kissed,

                  D                       G     G7

but I settled for her and she settled for me.





[Bridge]

------



C                      Em               Am

Ain't it funny how you miss someone,

                              D         G

you sat there next to them at home.

         G/F#      Em                           Am

Ain't it funny how hard we are to change,

                       D        C

like we're made out of stone.





[Final Chorus]

------------



                        Dadd4add9               G

We don't talk about the writing on the wall;

      G/F#              Em              Am

hell, somedays we don't talk at all.

                    D                  G        G7      C

When the lights are dim and my time is free,

                            Dadd4add9                   G

I sometimes think about the good times that I missed,

            G/F#            Em                          Am

I sometimes think about the girls I could've kissed,

                  D                       G     C  Dadd4add9  G

but I settled for her and she settled for me.
